This week's new
Steam Message offers a Team Fortress 2 image and a development update on
Valve's long awaited shooter:

Team Fortress 2 is really moving along in
development. In fact, things have reached a point where people start getting
pretty antsy around the office as we get closer and closer to the 6:00 p.m.
playtest session. We will be sharing more information about TF2 over the next
couple of months, and we'll make sure to point that out to people here. We've
included an illustration of some of the TF2 characters here that is currently
being used for the start-up screen for the game.

But that's okay because we need people like you to make the rest of look good. I mean, hey if there are people who have IQs of 120, then there have to be people in the world that have IQs of 80. Dr. Evil, thank you for being an 80. You make us all look better. Thank you!

Don't pay attention to mOOzilla. His mamma repeatedly dropped him on his head in an ongoing attempt to get rid of the ugly child, but she just couldn't bring herself to outright murder. Now, many years later, we all wish she had more balls than just the two s/he had.

They releasd this comment just incase we seemed to be distracted by other games on the market. This is just an advertisment as a reminder. Hey dudes, dont forget about TF2! oh yeah and we will remind you about Portal and EP2 later.

I am sick and tired of being brainwashed in BattleField2 game every time I log in (eventually when it decides to let me log in) first thing I see is the BattleField 2142 splash.

Does anybody know how to stop this crap, aside from not running BattleField 2 (I will do that once QuakeWars is out :))

Yeah, you've got my entire personality pegged with one comment.2142 isn't a terrible game, it's playable, stable (at least on my computer), and fun.Like most, it needed some polishing before releasing, but as gamers we've allowed that to be acceptable.
